We need to allow the server to send a new request immediately after we've
replied to the previous one. Right now, there is a window between the
send and the release of the old request in rpc_put_task(), where the
server could send us a new backchannel RPC call, and we have no
request to service it.

<title>sunrpc: convert to lockless lookup of queued server threads</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b1691bc03d4eddb959234409167bef9be9e62d74</id>
<content type='text'>
Testing has shown that the pool-&gt;sp_lock can be a bottleneck on a busy
server. Every time data is received on a socket, the server must take
that lock in order to dequeue a thread from the sp_threads list.

Address this problem by eliminating the sp_threads list (which contains
threads that are currently idle) and replacing it with a RQ_BUSY flag in
svc_rqst. This allows us to walk the sp_all_threads list under the
rcu_read_lock and find a suitable thread for the xprt by doing a
test_and_set_bit.

Note that we do still have a potential atomicity problem however with
this approach.  We don't want svc_xprt_do_enqueue to set the
rqst-&gt;rq_xprt pointer unless a test_and_set_bit of RQ_BUSY returned
zero (which indicates that the thread was idle). But, by the time we
check that, the bit could be flipped by a waking thread.

To address this, we acquire a new per-rqst spinlock (rq_lock) and take
that before doing the test_and_set_bit. If that returns false, then we
can set rq_xprt and drop the spinlock. Then, when the thread wakes up,
it must set the bit under the same spinlock and can trust that if it was
already set then the rq_xprt is also properly set.

With this scheme, the case where we have an idle thread no longer needs
to take the highly contended pool-&gt;sp_lock at all, and that removes the
bottleneck.

That still leaves one issue: What of the case where we walk the whole
sp_all_threads list and don't find an idle thread? Because the search is
lockess, it's possible for the queueing to race with a thread that is
going to sleep. To address that, we queue the xprt and then search again.

If we find an idle thread at that point, we can't attach the xprt to it
directly since that might race with a different thread waking up and
finding it.  All we can do is wake the idle thread back up and let it
attempt to find the now-queued xprt.

<title>sunrpc: require svc_create callers to pass in meaningful shutdown routine</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently all svc_create callers pass in NULL for the shutdown parm,
which then gets fixed up to be svc_rpcb_cleanup if the service uses
rpcbind.

Simplify this by instead having the the only caller that requires it
(lockd) pass in svc_rpcb_cleanup and get rid of the special casing.
